The first four WTA Jiangxi second-round matches will take place on Wednesday. No. 1 seed Marie Bouzkova and former French Open quarterfinalist Laura Siegemund are among the players in action. We at LWOT predict all the action in this article, but which players do you think will progress to the quarterfinals?

Laura Siegemund beat Tamara Korpatsch on Wednesday and will play the winner of the match between Mananchaya Sawangkaew and Zheng Saisai next

German Laura Siegemund reached the quarter-finals of the Jiangxi Open by beating compatriot Tamara Korpatsch 6-4, 6-4 at the Nanchang International Tennis Center on Wednesday.

Siegemund, ranked No 101, will face the winner of the match between Thai qualifier Mananchaya Sawangkaew and Chinese wildcard Zheng Saisai next.

In the previous round of the Jiangxi tournament, Laura Siegemund won against Japanese Moyuka Uchijima, the No 3 seed (7-5, 6-3).

Korpatsch, ranked No 200, won against Indonesian qualifier Priska Nugroho (6-0, 6-1) in the previous round of the Jiangxi tournament.

Siegemund’s Success

Siegemund’s straight-sets triumph against the No. 3 seed Moyuka Uchijima was a closer match than the scoreline suggested, but the German was more decisive in the important moments. Her compatriot Korpatsch only dropped one game in the first round. Expect a lot of variety in this match between these two, which should lead to an entertaining contest. Overall, Siegemund is slightly more likely to implement that style more successfully.

Predicting The Outcome

This match will be a tough one to call. Siegemund is the more experienced player, but Korpatsch has the momentum of a recent win under her belt. Ultimately, Siegemund's experience and ability to handle pressure situations give her the edge in this matchup.

What's Next For Siegemund?

Siegemund will be looking to continue her momentum and reach the semifinals of the Jiangxi Open. Her next opponent will be the winner of the match between Mananchaya Sawangkaew and Zheng Saisai. The winner of this match will have a tough challenge ahead of them, as Siegemund is playing with a lot of confidence right now.

Siegemund’s Recent Form

Siegemund has been in good form recently, winning her first-round match at the Jiangxi Open in straight sets. She is a dangerous player on any surface and will be looking to use her experience and versatility to her advantage in the upcoming rounds.

Sawangkaew vs Zheng: A Close Match

The match between Sawangkaew and Zheng is likely to be a close one. Sawangkaew is a rising star on the WTA Tour and has been playing well recently. Zheng is a veteran of the tour and has a lot of experience playing on this surface.

Zheng's Return After Hiatus

Zheng’s win against Jana Fett in the last round was her first singles win since returning from a two-year hiatus and ended a long losing run. However, things will not get any easier against Sawangkaew. The 22-year-old is playing great tennis right now. She overcame Lucia Bronzetti in her last match, and that level would almost certainly be good enough in this matchup.

Who Will Advance?

It's difficult to say definitively who will advance, as both Sawangkaew and Zheng are playing well. Sawangkaew is the more aggressive player, while Zheng is more experienced and has a better record on hard courts. The winner of this match will face Siegemund in the quarterfinals, which should be a very competitive match.
